Air ball geez

They absolutely did. He was never, ever considered for that job.

The South Carolina mods are some of the biggest homers and when Muschamp got canned everyone was clamoring for Freeze. They said Freeze had zero interest. They didn't even try to spin that he was begging for the job, because that didn't happen.

Dude, we are a bottom tier team...

Top tier team, bottom tier coach.

It’s just one game but EA really looks like he should have stayed at the mid major level.
Hope he makes that statement look foolish down the road but he looks very poor today

I thought the last game he showed some. I think he'll be valuable in situations. He's a space eater and can body his way to some rebounds.

Basketball team got some jelling to do,

He’s a garbage guy at worst I think
it sounded like he played better Tuesday but I only listened

Im worried about his D. He’s our worst defender at the moment I think

We are right now. But the ceiling here is through the roof and ignoring that is ridiculous.

Top tier team, bottom tier coach.

We’ve had 4 different HCs since Phil.

We’ve failed to win 10 games since 2007.

4 HCs. But one common denominator - Vols football.

We are not viewed as a top tier team by anyone except posters on this board. I’m not saying I’m cool with that, it’s just facts.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Dang. Tee needs a chance. He would’ve been good for that job

 

[InVOLuntary]

He just did what I think he's best at. Offensive rebounds, one on a free throw which ain't easy now a days.

 

[Orange Studs]

Getting out played right now.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Being outworked right now.

Thanks for the history lesson but everyone here is very aware of our recent failures.

Great coaches chase potential. How high can I go? The right coach can go pretty dang high here. Higher than Ole Miss.

Great minds lol

Thats not really true. We still pull top 10-15 classes despite being garbage for 15 years. All it takes is the right coach.

 

[Orange Studs]

BOOOOM!

 

[TN-POSSUM]

he was young and made a mistake.

LK loved TN so much last time and he really embraced our traditions.... .
If he left Ole Miss for TN this year, how exactly has he matured and learned from mistakes he made here? If a NFL or bigger NCAA coaching position opened up, he'd do us the same way again. No thanks.

The ceiling at FSU is through the roof. Are they a top tier team?

Same at Texas. Are they a top tier team?

Same USC. Are they a top tier team?

I wasn’t speaking to ceilings, I was speaking to what we are now. And have been for a decade with the exception of a couple seasons when we peaked as a medium tier team.

 

[Nash_Vol97]

Springer has great vision

Look at basketball. There were people who laughed at me when I said I wanted to recruit with KY and Duke. Look at Barnes now. If we can do that in basketball, of course we can do it in football. Just bring me the right coach. I.e. Freeze

 

[Orange Studs]

We just can't make inside shots.

 

[BruinVol]

agreed
just wondering is he’s going to
Give up more than he gets
his D worries me

Yes, the right coach at any of those schools, and us including is national championship. It isn't at Ole Miss.

 

[TrippieRedd]

I like EA, 3rd best big on the roster. Better then OK, Plav, etc. not saying a lot but could be worse.
